    An entertaining, mission-based driver with hilarious commentary and fairly engrossing gameplay. This is definitely a sleeper hit for the aging PlayStation.

    After spending a week tiring of this title's company, memories of the countless frustrations encountered are also taken away from the affair.
    • 65 Metascore
    • 70 Critic Score
    Despite there being 13 different racers, all the characters seem to have the same abilities and driving styles.
    • 80 Metascore
    • 70 Critic Score
    The 24 mini-games that make up the whole present a pretty good cross-section of every gaming style imaginable. They're all handled well.
    • 89 Metascore
    • 70 Critic Score
    More an interactive movie than a game, RE2 looks pretty but lacks challenge.
    • 78 Metascore
    • 70 Critic Score
    Players expecting next-generation gameplay to accompany the update in the graphics may find themselves a bit disappointed. But if mind-numbing powerslides pulled off in polygonal heaven is your thing, then RRV does indeed fire on all cylinders.

    Great-looking models of some of the coolest planes ever made. Easy to jump right in and start blasting.
    • 67 Metascore
    • 70 Critic Score
    One of the most intriguing blast-a-thons in recent memory.

    You get the feeling that the voice work was done by people that roll their R's when ordering the "Burrito Supreme" at Taco Bell.
    • 41 Metascore
    • 70 Critic Score
    It's a shame that the developers didn't polish "Rally Challenge 2000" a bit before they sent it out the door, because it has a really cool racing engine at its core.
    • 71 Metascore
    • 70 Critic Score
    If you are a World War II buff or a strategy enthusiast, by all means take PGIII for a cruise, but if you want variety and visual stimulation from a game, search elsewhere.
    • 49 Metascore
    • 70 Critic Score
    Like a mixture of "Mario Kart" and "Motor Toon GP," RC Revenge Pro's pint-sized racing terrors are armed to the teeth, delivering a totally lighthearted, fun and competitive racing experience.
    • 73 Metascore
    • 70 Critic Score
    But if you move through the settings from easy to normal to hard to very hard, you've got a challenging shooter that is as graphically appealing and fun as any out there--except, of course, for "Radiant Silvergun."
    • 77 Metascore
    • 70 Critic Score
    Even with its flaws in gameplay mechanics and visual presentation, Capcom's port of Resident Evil 2 is a thing of beauty, preserving the euphoric atmosphere of a game that no other gaming company has been able to duplicate to date.
    • 68 Metascore
    • 70 Critic Score
    Has some arguably unique approaches, but seems to be lacking many of the checks and balances that would reign said approaches in from out-of-control excesses to interesting novelties.
    • 78 Metascore
    • 70 Critic Score
    For the first time, a mech-style game makes you feel like you're actually inhabiting the suit, not controlling it from afar.
    • 64 Metascore
    • 70 Critic Score
    My only complaint about the story is that it's a little linear, but as the focus of the game is on combat, it's forgivable.
    • 65 Metascore
    • 70 Critic Score
    A mediocre title that's way too short and only slightly innovative. However, if you can't get enough of these games, the price makes a purchase a no-brainer.
    • 77 Metascore
    • 70 Critic Score
    Like "SimCity 2000" and "SimCity 3000," this version can be extremely challenging and requires more micromanaging than even New York Mayor Rudy Giuliani would want.
    • 66 Metascore
    • 70 Critic Score
    The lack of anything more in-depth, such as a career mode, severely cuts the replay value of Royal Rumble.
    • 83 Metascore
    • 70 Critic Score
    The aspect of contacting and interacting with demons was also an element that I fully embraced. It broke the monotony of simply killing and killing in order to gain experience points.
    • 76 Metascore
    • 70 Critic Score
    The online play takes this game over the top, as you no longer just win money from your game console's unlimited bank, but you actually get to grab it from other human racers.
    • 79 Metascore
    • 65 Critic Score
    The super-sugary-sweet music and the cutesy characters are enough to bring you to tears.
    • 57 Metascore
    • 65 Critic Score
    The only way I can recommend this game is if you have a bunch of friends to play against head-to-head.
    • 71 Metascore
    • 65 Critic Score
    It's cool to look at and has excellent sound, but it lacks fundamental gameplay elements that make kart racing the good time that it is.
    • 74 Metascore
    • 65 Critic Score
    After spending solo time with the game, I've decided that Mario Party 3 is like that last guest who refuses to accept that the party is over.
    • 79 Metascore
    • 65 Critic Score
    Sporting sharper, smoother graphics, and a few new odds and ends, fans of the RE series who haven't tromped through the many PlayStation iterations will appreciate this conversion.
    • 81 Metascore
    • 65 Critic Score
    It is extremely awkward trying to control your basic movements with the left analog stick while at the same time controlling your look and aim movements with the right analog stick.

    If you are looking for all-out arcade excitement that has made Midway notorious, you will definitely find it in CART Fury. Unfortunately, the novelty of this high-octane action burns out rather quickly.
    • 68 Metascore
    • 65 Critic Score
    Spastic action, beautiful graphics and robotic sound effects do not a classic make.
